When you order chicken satay skewers, get so excited but what arrives is something that has been chargrilled to death that even the chicken wouldn’t recognise it; and is just a dry, shrivelled mess that you wouldn’t look twice at.

THANKFULLY, what was presented before me was the most tender, succulent and generously portioned chicken satay skewers I’ve had in a long time. It was glazed with this spicy, sticky peanutt-y sauce that made it oh-the-more awesome.

Mains

Green Chicken Curry £8.95 with Coconut rice £3.50

Red Beef Curry with £8.95 Vegetable Noodles £4.95

I have found it impossibly difficult to locate a classic Thai restaurant in London, that I could go back to over and over again.

Thai Thai sits right at the top of my list for sure.

Both curries were creamy without feeling too heavy and had a perfect level of spice where it gradually builds up. I love that slow burning feeling.

The chicken and beef portions were really generous in both dishes, and most importantly were really tender.

Dessert

Pandan Coconut Sticky Rice Pudding with Fresh Mango

The sticky rice was a touch on the dry side for dessert, but anything can be redeemed by feeding me spoonfuls of fresh mango. All of the mango, of course.

Yeah-O-Meter

This is just around the corner from my work and I have been in search of a place that is not ridic expensive and something different from the usual lunch time places. Defo going to have to give this place a visit!
